What score do you get on the social anxiety test?

http://www.anxietyhelp.org/information/leibowitz.html I got 104 (53 fear and 51 avoidance). I thought that I would be in the Very Severe range =( EDIT:I did another test today (1/4/08} and got 100. Same fear, but lower avoidance. Shows that this test can vary depending on how you feel that day!

I'm curious if any of your results have changed over the last 6+ months.

Your score:
27 (fear) + 43 (avoidance) = 70

If I recall correctly, it was in the high 90 area last I had taken it.

Your score:
47 (fear) + 44 (avoidance) = 91 Severe social phobia

Well it's what I expected.

43 (fear) + 40 (avoidance) = 83, severe social phobia

I didn't think it was this bad, but I guess I was wrong. Kinda nice to have something to blame it all on, but at the same time... Not so much.

Whoa. I don't think I really expected to get this high. Hmm.

Your score:
42 (fear) + 45 (avoidance) = 87

Minor? Wow, sounds like my phobia is absolutely no problem at all. *HAHA* That's awesome... but honestly... it feels more than just minor. I can be in public just fine... it's the socializing that's HARD.

64 (fear) + 58 (avoidance) = 122

I got 10 (fear) + 14 (avoidance) = 24

I´m sure my score would change if the test mentioned the issues that fit me. Too vague it´s what it is!

I find it kinda high to be honest, but most situation didn't happen recently so I could only go with past experiences

62 (fear) + 63 (avoidance) = 125

It's worse than I thought...

Your score:
54 (fear) + 65 (avoidance) = 119

Oooo wow, I'm much better than I used to be though. I think these tests never ask the right questions though

I got 93 when I took it a while back. Now I'm down to 79.

bangdrum Jul 17, 2011 at 10:06 AM #93 Report

38 (fear) + 31 (avoidance) = 69

Problem is, I'm definitely AvPD, which this doesn't measure enough of. So I might have a lower SP score than I used to (trust me, I'm sure I used to be worse), but this doesn't factor in the other issues.

The stuff on that list that's worst for me is: making phone calls to strangers, returning stuff to the store (and also food in restaurants, which should be on there), giving/going to parties (obviously), and entering the room when everyone else is already seated.

I think I've done this before and got the same score

34 (fear) and 37 (avoidance) = 71 🙁

45 (fear) + 41 (avoidance) = 86, which is classed as Severe.

I didn't expect it to be that high!

severe social phobia, YIKES!

The last time I took this, I think I got somewhere in the 110-120 range. I just took it again and my results are...

50 (fear) + 53 (avoidance) = 103

It did go down a little bit, which is good I suppose. It'll probably go right back up though in a couple months. 😛

I took this 3 years ago and got 88, I just took it again and got 95... And I thought I was getting better. That test is far too simplistic (and subjective) to be very accurate.

40 (fear) + 56 (avoidance)

96
